Excellent. First class environment, proper staff, nice decor, food was great. If it's fall, it can get pretty noisy with the hard floors and all the people so if you're planning on having a quiet conversation, this is not the place for it. That's not a complaint just an FYI. read more

This is one of the only restaurants in this quaint town however it was a great option. The space was large so it could accommodate lots of people. The staff was great and attentive. Food didn't take too long to come out. The cocktails were fun and delicious with local flavors. As for food we loved the octopus and seafood pasta. We also got the broccolini and tortellini, both great but didn't stand out as much as the other two, but really not a bad bite. I would recommend if in the area the town is also cute but nothing really to go out of your way for. Price point was definitely a nicer meal but I enjoyed. read more

A few friends and I are at The Paddock Club tonight and the food was amazing. We arrived for a reservation which wasn't quite ready but we were seated within maybe 10 minutes. After sitting at the table it took about 10 minutes for our waitress to stop by and take drink orders, so we decided to just order our food as well. We split the mushroom risotto, calamari, brussels sprouts, gnocchi, and fries (much to our dismay they were out of the butternut squash pasta dish). Fresh bread was also served which we weren't expecting! Our first batch of food arrived quickly, before we even got our drinks (sodas even). We loved everything we got except the fries were cold and bland. Otherwise, every dish was above average! My personal favorites were the mushroom risotto and the gnocchi. The service was our only down side, we rarely saw our waitress, water was never topped off, and even the person who checked us in wasn't particularly friendly. It certainly wasn't terrible but would easily be a five star if the service had been better. Highly recommend for a great meal though! read more

On a mini food tour in Elkhart Lake, my friend and I stopped here for dinner, and I will say that this place lived up to the hype! We were immediately greeted by a friendly hostess, and she led us through a large bar area to a second dining room next to the Open Concept kitchen. Our server was great and explained the menu to us, as well as answered our questions and helped with recommendations. The menu features mostly Mediterranean dishes, but there are a few other continental dishes that appear as specials and on the regular menu. We ordered the Mushroom Arancini and Bibimbap as our shared apps, and both dishes were perfectly executed with delicious flavor and great textures! Then we shared the Butternut Squash Ravioli and Gnocchi, and both dishes were show-stoppers! Again, both were absolutely perfectly executed and super delicious! They were both so good, we couldn't pick a favorite. The gnocchi may have been the best I've ever had, and if not, definitely top two! It was so incredibly light and fluffy. Had this been our only food stop, we would have ordered more dishes. I definitely want to go back soon! Maybe I can time it with a visit for a race. read more

Went to the Paddock Club mid week for our anniversary dinner. We have gone there to celebrate many special occasions. We got there and the place was mobbed with a convention. We got a table because we had a reservation. We ordered our drinks and waited half an hour. We couldn't talk it was so crazy loud in the bar. We walked out! I'm super sad as this has always been our special place. Maybe they should not have had reservations for the bar but it was ridiculous. I am not sure if we will go back. read more

Had confirmed reservations at Paddock Club in August of 2024 for a birthday dinner for my sister. So, definitely not my first visit to Paddock Club...I have enjoyed MANY occasions and great dining there over the past years. The food, service and atmosphere were always beyond exceptional! NOT THIS TIME! The bar was so CROWDED with hightop tables that it was very difficult to move between them. It was SO LOUD; we literally could not speak with each other. The hostess led us to a hightop in the back end of the bar; I informed her that we had reservations for dinner in the dining room. She stated that the dining was full and that we would be served at this crowded, small hightop in the bar area. I (shouting) explained that we had confirmed rsvps in the dining room and that we could not speak to one another due to the noise in the bar area. She arrogantly repeated that the dining room was full, so we would be seated in the bar. No apology. WE LEFT. The place has now become a party place for weekend tourists. The locals (Kohler) will adjust of course, just sad to lose a great relaxing bar and restaurant. read more

It was a special occasion and the Paddock Club went out of their way to make us feel special. My wife arranged for a really nice bourbon to be at our table when we sat down. I was touched. The soup special with mushrooms and celery root was delicious. We had the pair and nut salad and it was also very good. The trout spread was wonderful, and so generous a helping we had it the next day for a snack. The entree we split was a beautiful snapper fillet over potatoes green beans and a lovely white wine sauce. The service was impeccable. This is a truly high-end restaurant in a small town. Highly recommend even if you're not in the area you should make the trip. read more

Unexpected restaurant in this tiny town. It's a gem! Could stand up against big town restaurants. We came here from Las Vegas to visit some family. Wasn't expecting much in terms of good quality restaurants and were blown away. Everything was spectacular. Long list of specials with a changing menu! We had a bean salad, seafood pasta, salmon and steak. Everything was great. Stop here if you're in town. read more

So glad we tried this restaurant. It was excellent! The inside there is plenty of room and tables. They also had outdoor seating. However, no tent coverage. So if it rains you will get wet! I ordered the Halibut. It was delicious. It came we snow peas and mashed potatoes with a creamy white sauce. The fish was delicious. As a matter fact the whole dish was delicious! The fish was tender, perfectly cooked, with a slight crust on top. The snap peas and the mashed potatoes were well seasoned and great! My friend ordered the scallops and I tried one. Wow! Perfectly cooked, tender, and well seasoned. My other friend had the Hanger Steak, medium well which comes with fries. I tried it as well and it was cooked perfectly and well seasoned. I did not try the fries, however my friend said she would have preferred my mashed potatoes to go with the Steak. Our waitress was very nice. She was attentive and did her best to keep checking on us. She was pretty busy so I can't complain. Overall this place is excellent. If ever at Elkhart Lake and want to go out for a nice dinner, this place is it! read more

We stopped in last night with six adults but kiddos seem very welcome at this restaurant. It was their tapas night and the service was wonderful. The hostess was great and our server, Lizzy, was perfect. The space is beautiful and the atmosphere is friendly. The food was tasty and fresh but not very conducive to sharing. It was more like small over priced plates that were a challenge to share. The hazelnut chocolate torte was the star of the night. We ordered drinks, pretty much the whole menu of tapas (Doubled up on some) and two desserts. We split the check between three cards and with tip it was about a 300$ meal. The problem I had with this place is that many of us left hungry. It may have been because of the presentation- once again many of the dishes were not easy to share and the plates in front of each of us for sharing were just tiny bread plates. My dad's buttermilk fried chicken was great but it was not tapas- it was a tiny serving that we would have to hack up for everyone to try. This place serves quality food and drink but be ready to pay a pretty penny for a small amount of food on tapas night. When my partner and I spend 100$ on a meal we hope to at least leave full. I also thought the food was good but not incredible. When the bread basket at the table is one of the stars of the show it says a lot. It's a nice place and I don't want to discourage anyone from trying it but in my book it just wasn't worth it. read more

I really like this restaurant. It in Sheboygan Falls. My husband and I made reservation for Valentine's Day. This place is welcoming. We could have ordered off the regular menu or the special Valentines menu. Both our dishes were delicious. We had dessert as cappuccino. This place is smaller and to me very intimate. We were apply to talk to each other. I will definitely go back to this restaurant. read more

The place was clean and cozy. We ordered pasta and steak. The steak was great but the pasta was not so good. But the dessert was awesome. The food came decently fast. Overall the place is okay read more

Food: the food was great it had flavor and fashion into each bite you took. The bread they give out is impeccable! Service: The waitress peggy is amazing, she lightens the mood and makes everyone laugh. Ambiance: The restaurant is so adorable! The music and the lights is just breath taking! If your gonna order the crab and lobster pasta, if you like something sweet thats the food for you. The sauce is very sweet, but just ate it. It was delicious! 10/10 would recommend! read more

Great place, great food. Filet was amazing! Been here many times. The chef is amazing looking forward to going back!

Food was great. Best in the area. Service was excellent as was the ambiance. Friendly atmosphere.

Holy forking ship! This was one of the best meals I've had in a long time accompanied by exceptional service and cocktails. An all around great experience. I will be honest: We were in a small, strange town in Wisconsin. Some really sweet kid who sells crystals nearby recommended the place. I thought, "well, he's just a sweet kid who sells crystals in a small, strange town in Wisconsin, so if this place sucks I won't be too surprised." Can I tell you something? That kid is an oracle. I owe him my life, my love and a debt of gratitude that will bond us for eternity. I don't know about the powers of the crystals that kid sells, but one thing I do know is that The Paddock Club is magical. From the food to the staff to the ambiance. If it were a precious stone sold by a sweet kid in a small, strange town on Wisconsin, it would be a diamond. 5 enthusiastic stars! read more

Spent the week up here, from Chicago. Do yourself a favor and eat at this restaurant. Every item we ordered off the menu was fantastic. My 16 month old loooved the bolognese. The hanger steak was cooked to perfection and seasoned perfectly. Wish this place was located in Chicago, I'd eat there once a week. read more

Had a terrible dinner here with my daughter. Lousy wine, very slow, inattentive service, and a super salty meal that was almost inedible. We will not return here the next time we are in town. read more

5 star all the way. Staff, drinks, menu choices, atmosphere, food-this place has it all. If it's Summer, make a reservation for sure.

First time we have eaten here. I always like to clarify that my job is in customer experience so my lens is a little different. We made a reservation for a high too so it was more casual and we're placed in a grouping close together despite many tables being open. I am assuming this had to do with number of servers. But an adult only table being placed next to a family in the bar with three small kids was kind of odd. Those kids were dolls. The second thing that was odd was that my seat was under the television. Like really dusty wires and all. There should not be a table right underneath all of that. Third, the reservation asked if we were celebrating anything. We were. A birthday. No mention. This is one of the easiest wins for a business. Just a mentions that they paid attention. Otherwise why ask? The halibut was great. The steak was very good. The ravioli was fine. Great bread. Great calamari. Good wine menu. Very dark. But nice ambiance. Definitely not a cheap visit but food worth the price according to my table. read more

I'll start by saying the food we had was excellent. The reason I gave 3 stars is because the service was so slow. Soooo slow. For a Wednesday night, it shouldn't be that slow as the restaurant wasn't busy. Also, the prices are a tad bit crazy. My husband and I shared an appetizer and each had a cup (not a bowl) of soup and NO drinks... $28. read more

Outstanding food ate there twice and would highly recommend it. The pastas are superb and would highly recommend the mushroom arronchini

Just don't go here with kids - We we're vacationing at the osthoff resort and headed into town for dinner. I called beforehand and was assured no reservation was necessary for 4 people if we came in around 5. When we came in, with our 1 month old (very sleepy) baby, we asked for a table for 4. We were immediately told that they only had outside (sunny and hot) available. Basically every table inside was free...so we were very surprised. Then, as I took my son inside to use the restroom, I saw them seat 2 different groups of 4..no problem. Obviously they didn't want a family with a baby inside their restaurant. On top of that, my steak was BLUE when I ordered medium plus. Charged me for the whole steak. You can do better. Eat somewhere else. read more

We live in Florida but consider this "our place". We come to Elkhart Lake nearly every year around our anniversary. We found Paddock Club at least 14 years ago and have enjoyed our anniversary dinner there ever since. The atmosphere, wonderful food and friendly staff make this a no brainer choice. This year we sat outside and it was lovely. It was much quieter than the inside since that was quite crowded with the old racing car crowd. Every meal we've had has been creative, attractively presented and delicious! The wine list is great too! read more

We chose this restaurant to try during a recent visit to Elkhart Lake mostly because it was one of the few that had their menu posted in the window. What we found when seated (quickly) was a friendly place to dine and drink. Very excellent waitstaff who were there when we needed something without being the least bit intrusive. Great menu- they seem to have both the sandwich and near gourmet entree ends of the spectrum covered. The only negative is it gets a bit noisy on busy nights- the decor doesn't lend itself to sound absorption apparently. We felt it is an all around solid feel good place to enjoy- the prices are reasonable too (not sure why other reviewers thought otherwise)! read more

Really good food and a great staff.........hopefully next time I visit they will have gotten rid of that terrible gluten free beer and replaced it with Omission Gluten free beer. Def worth a night out read more
